Introducing the next generation of Cisco switches for Small and Medium Business Cisco is refreshing its Small and Medium Business (SMB) switching portfolio to provide better performance, superior ease of use and more intelligent features to help our customers thrive in the digital economy. These new switches are the evolution of the existing SMB switching portfolio, and share the same philosophy and value proposition building a simple, secure, and reliable network at an affordable price. The following chart shows how the product migration will happen for each series of switches in our portfolio. Cisco SMB Switching Portfolio Transition 500 Series stackable managed 550X Series stackable managed Managed True stacking VRRP / RIP 10GE stacking and uplinks 300 Series managed Best features/affordability Security - ACLs, 802.1x, DAI, IPSG IPv4 static routing Redundant power and fan 10GE uplink and all 10GE 8 unit true stacking PoE+ and 60W PoE 350 Series managed Simplified UI, SNA, PnP client IPv6 Static Routing sflow, RSPAN, 2R3C Policing PoE+ and 60W PoE PSE / PD Low cost alternative 350X Series stackable managed 10GE uplink and all 10GE 4 units true stacking 2.5GE port for 11ac wave 2 PoE+ and 60W PoE 220 Series smart plus 250 Series smart Smart Enhanced smart features ACLs / CLI 200 Series smart Advanced smart features Static routing, ACL, CLI 220 Series smart Low cost alternative Basic smart features Half of ports or all ports PoE Enhanced smart features Unmanaged 95/110 Series unmanaged Basic connectivity Half of ports PoE 95/110 Series unmanaged Basic connectivity Half of ports PoE
The new portfolio includes 550X, 350X, 350 and 250 Series switches to replace the current 500, 300 and 200 Series. There is no change to 220 Series smart switches and 110 and 95 Series unmanaged switches. They will continue to be integral parts of the Cisco SMB switching portfolio.
